Human blood serum proteome changes after 6 hours of sleep deprivation at night
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background The aim of this study was to discover significantly changed proteins in human blood serum after loss of 6 h sleep at night. Furthermore, to reveal affected biological process- and molecular function categories ... -
A human clinical trial using ultrasound and microbubbles to enhance gemcitabine treatment of inoperable pancreatic cancer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12)Background: The primary aim of our study was to evaluate the safety and potential toxicity of gemcitabine combined with microbubbles under sonication in inoperable pancreatic cancer patients. The secondary aim was to ... -
Human cognitive ability is influenced by genetic variation in components of postsynaptic signalling complexes assembled by NMDA receptors and MAGUK proteins
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Differences in general cognitive ability (intelligence) account for approximately half of the variation in any large battery of cognitive tests and are predictive of important life events including health. Genome-wide ... -
Human Embryonic Development : Effects of Physical Activity and Sleep in Physiological Pregnancies
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-05-03)Bakgrunn: Forskningsfeltet "Developmental Origin of Health and Disease" (DOHaD) har vist hvor betydningsfull fosterutviklingen er for individets fremtidige helse og sykdomsrisiko. I senere år har den tidligste perioden av ... -
Human gain-of-function variants in HNF1A confer protection from diabetes but independently increase hepatic secretion of atherogenic lipoproteins
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Loss-of-function mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor 1A (HNF1A) are known to cause rare forms of diabetes and alter hepatic physiology through unclear mechanisms. In the general population, 1:100 individuals carry a ... -
Human gingival epithelial cells stimulate proliferation, migration, and tube formation of lymphatic endothelial cells in vitro
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the response of gingival epithelial cells to microbial and inflammatory signals. Background The gingival epithelial barrier provides the first line of defense and ... -
A human iPSC-astroglia neurodevelopmental model reveals divergent transcriptomic patterns in schizophrenia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)While neurodevelopmental abnormalities have been associated with schizophrenia (SCZ), the role of astroglia in disease pathophysiology remains poorly understood. In the present study, we used a human induced pluripotent ... -
Human Leukocyte Antigen alleles associated with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The etiology and pathogenesis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) are unknown, and autoimmunity is one of many proposed underlying mechanisms. Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) associations are ... -
Human mucosal IgA immune responses against enterotoxigenic escherichia coli
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-29)Infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major contributor to diarrheal illness in children in low- and middle-income countries and travelers to these areas. There is an ongoing effort to develop vaccines ... -
Human myelin protein P2: from crystallography to time-lapse membrane imaging and neuropathy-associated variants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Peripheral myelin protein 2 (P2) is a fatty acid-binding protein expressed in vertebrate peripheral nervous system myelin, as well as in human astrocytes. Suggested functions of P2 include membrane stacking and lipid ... -
Human myelin proteolipid protein structure and lipid bilayer stacking
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The myelin sheath is an essential, multilayered membrane structure that insulates axons, enabling the rapid transmission of nerve impulses. The tetraspan myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) is the most abundant protein of ... -
Human NAA30 can rescue yeast mak3∆ mutant growth phenotypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)N-terminal acetylation is an irreversible protein modification that primarily occurs co-translationally, and is catalyzed by a highly conserved family of N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs). The NatC complex (NAA30–NAA35–NAA38) ... -
Human organotypic airway and lung organoid cells of bronchiolar and alveolar differentiation are permissive to infection by influenza and SARS-CoV-2 respiratory virus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to the initiation of unprecedented research efforts to understand the pathogenesis mediated by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). ... -
Human pancreatic glucokinase. Structural and physico-chemical studies related to catalytic activation, kinetic cooperativity and GCK-diabetes.
(Doctoral thesis, 2012-10-19)Glucokinase (GK) functions as a glucose sensor in insulin-producing pancreatic-cells and as a regulator of hepatic glycolysis, glycogen synthesis and gluconeogenesis. Its key role in glucose homeostasis is evidenced by ... -
Human resources for emergency obstetric care in northern Tanzania: distribution of quantity or quality?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-07-29)Background: Health care agencies report that the major limiting factor for implementing effective health policies and reforms worldwide is a lack of qualified human resources. Although many agencies have adopted policy ... -
